Hi Singapore, i need some suggestions here. I am looking for an event space for rent for an evening / after-work networking session. Ideally the event is able to house 50-100 pax seated and also allows F&B to be served within the premise. Thank you so much!

I use up my shampoo so fast it's crazy (maybe as my nose is really sensitive to scent so I wanted to smell good at all time, so I tend to use really a lot of shampoo and shower a lot).

I also realise my clothes (basic Tees, undergarments) and shoes go bad pretty fast (washing machine and maybe I walk a lot)?

Do you guys have any good tips or good online website to get daily necessities at cheaper prices? For me I already buy from NtuC/Sheng Siong and stop buying ATA's shampoo brand. Yet I finish them so fast it's crazy.

For context I going to be in SG for two days, because I have a overnight layover so I decided to stretch out that layover for a short side-quest.

Hi everyone. Ever since my time in Japan, I have missed connecting with Japanese people. Looking for any tips if there are any social gatherings to meet people from Japanese community in Singapore.

I’m looking to get a Singapore number that I can also use overseas (EU) mainly to receive SMS for bank otps etc. The main criteria is that it’s cheap and supports receiving text messages. I got a cheap one before (circles.life) only to find out it doesn’t support international roaming, and no text messages abroad.

Does anyone have experience with this and a recommendation for a provider?

Which or what smaller habits made you happy ? Let me share mine.

Do share yours. Happy long weekend !

I'm looking for chinese equivalents of shows like Bluey and trash truck.

Hey there, could anyone please give me an idea on grab/taxi rates from Changi Airport to Little India. I will be traveling to Singapore soon and will arrive 12am at the airport. I am assuming busses and trains no longer operates at this hour. If you could advise any other transportation I could use to go out of the airport and into the city.

While walking towards MBS, i saw this person today skating around with 2 cats on his shoulders.

Would love to meet those cats if possible? I saw others petting the cats earlier but didn't know they were his.

Was applying some Feng you to a mosquito bite and I suddenly thought of a distant memory of my primary school classmate telling me his grandfather would literally break the Feng you glass bottle and drink the oil on a regular basis. Never knew if he was BS-ing me or not

Hey, are there are any watch parties in SG this year? Thanks!

I took a renovation loan back in 2023 at about 30k and have been paying for a full year now. While i am only paying close to about $400 per month, you would think that the remaining loan amount would be at around $25k but instead i am seeing a remaining loan amount and principal amount of $26k plus close to $27k. I couldn't make sense on why the loan amount is not deducting based on the monthly cash i am forking out and instead is deducting at a lower amount. One of my friends was telling me to pay the loan amount in full but i understand that i will need to pay an additional admin fee that is about 2% of the remaining loan balance. I am just confused on what amount will i be paying if i am going to do a full payment and wondering whether it is best to simply pay the loan on a monthly basis.

Hello

I need a help regarding my future Singapore travel. I'm traveling on 16th nov and wanted to celebrate my son birthday but the Singapore flyer don't allow kids below 7 for their dinner plan and private capsule is so expensive. Can you please suggest me any other options to celebrate the birthday.

Salient place and evening time is preferable. Can spend 250 S$

So I’ve had a few very unpleasant experiences ordering from Redmart. It’s either been always delayed, or the delivery man would have the audacity to mark the order as delivered when I received nothing, which I suspect is to meet the timing targets in the system. Obviously I was triggered because besides having to wait past the delivery time, I now had to call up the centre to verify where the hell my order was.

Today, the order has been 8 hours past the latest delivery time. At 6 hours past I called and they refused to cancel it. I insisted and the usually sweet sounding Pinoy call centre lady got agitated with me, when I wasn’t even abusive. On the phone they promised it would be done but nope, I had to do the cancellation via chat again.

Here are my questions, for people who deliver the orders:

1. is is usual for deliveries to be grossly past the 6 hour time range? I mean like between 2-6 hours past the latest promised time slots.

2. what system are you guys on that 70% of deliveries (at least to me, in a very Central Area in town) will be late?

3. does the tracking system give you unreasonable targets to hit in terms of volumes per load?

4. what would make you resort to falsifying a delivery when it’s not yet completed?

5. why is the Redmart alert about receiving the order within 15mins misleading 90% of the time, i.e. 15 mins means 1 hour or more, if it even arrives?

I’m trying to be more understanding but from my POV it is very frustrating to stay home when I have appointments and obviously the frozen and chilled items are not always packed properly so I have to be home to receive them.

Please help me understand what’s going on.

And no, I’m probably not ordering from Redmart ever again. Pretty much done with this rubbish. Covid period it was useful. Now it is really quite shit.

Just wanted to understand what I’m not seeing, thanks.

Recently, I decided I would like to read some Chinese books, so I decided to browse some online bookshops for some titles. However, I realised I actually can't find most of them in common bookstores in Singapore, such as Kinokuniya. Can anyone recommend bookstores selling decent amounts of Chinese books in SG? Thxxxxx.

Hello!! I ordered some colored contacts from a brand that uses Singapore Post and I was wondering how long it takes for a package to arrive once it reaches the U.S? I ordered on the 15th and received a notification on the 24th that it was despatched to the U.S but have received nothing else.

Hello guys, I usually buy those stuffs in Fair Price. Is it good? I heard many people say wet market is better for buying fresh food? I’m afraid of someone will pissed off if I just asking but do not buy. My budget for groceries around 50-100 sgd each month. Thank you.

hi guys i need advice. i've recently worked at an event job with no written contract as its thru a tele channel. however there were whatsapp messages which stated the pay rate and stuff.

and while most of my friends have received their pay on 25th oct alr i haven't. i've contacted the recruiter who's also the owner/director of his recruitment company, and he gave me this "proof" of payment which doesn't show anything other than my name and paynow phone number, but it also showed another fellow worker's number. recruiter claimed that all other workers have received their pay alr. so i contacted that fellow worker and she also hasn't received her pay which shows that this "proof" doesn't prove anything. i tried to ask for another kind of proof and he ignored me.

now recruiter has been ghosting me and fellow worker since tuesday despite coming online every 2 minutes.

again this had no written contract involved so idek if i can report to police for scam or smt unless the messages count. what do i do 😔

hi all, first time poster here. so basically i was having fun feeding a cat when i felt it's teeth scrap my hand. i wouldn't say it's a bite as if it was a bite i think there would have been more force behind it. or, it could've been a small bite i'm really not sure. i know Singapore has been rabies free so i'm not that worried about rabies. however, i'm still worried about the possible case of infections such as tetanus. i've just applied some anti-septic cream on some spots on my hand which are a little red (i'm not sure if it was alr there before this incident). just wanted to ask if i should go and see a doc or is it just fine to monitor and see if there's anything wrong. my parents say that they're not really worried about anything but i'm so paranoid. would greatly appreciate any help and advice. thank you!

Good day. Can I bring personal medicines like (nasal spray, tablets for cold)? I checked on HSA Gov the active ingredient and it’s says no need for approval. Just in case asking as I’m in short of time and no need any issues at the airport.

Seriously, I don't see the point of spending an extra $1 mil just to settle into a residence with a gym that's likely small crap anyway, a pool that isn't for proper swimming and a security guard that's practically useless since when who gives a rat's ass about trespassing into a condo for??

If not, are there smaller leagues such as 7-9 a side? I understand there’s the Stranger Soccer app which is for more casual play. I’m looking for something a bit more competitive.

I’m British born Chinese potentially moving to Singapore for work.

Hi - My partner and I are both on EPs. To activate the diplomatic clause in our TA, do we both need to show evidence of a transfer out of SG or just one of us? Context: My salary allows us to live in SG, my partner's monthly salary doesn't even cover our rent. When my job transfers me outside of SG, my partner will start to look for a new position within his company but this could take a few months. I'm concerned that if we're only able to activate the diplomatic clause after he finds a transfer, it will be much later than we'd like. Can anyone share their personal experience with the diplomatic clause with two people on EPs?

"Provided the Tenant has occupied the Premises for a minimum period of Four (4)

months, the Tenant may exercise the diplomatic clause by giving the Landlord Two (2)

month’s notice in writing of the Tenant’s intention to terminate the tenancy or Two (2)

month’s rent in lieu of such notice if the tenant i) deported from Singapore ; ii) refused

permission by the Singapore Government to reside or work in Singapore; iii)

transferred or relocated from Singapore to another country; or iv) employment contract

being terminated during the said term. Provided always that the said written notice

shall be accompanied by documentary evidence providing the event relied upon by

the Tenant in the said written notice. As of the date of this Agreement, the immediate

occupants of the said premises are, <lists both partners>."
